SAN JOSE—Ascent, a 650-unit apartment community, began leasing mid-September and is celebrating its first move-ins. Ascent is a joint venture between Shea Properties and Ivanhoe' Cambridge.
Yunmi Martin, senior vice president, Shea Apartments, tells GlobeSt.com: "We are excited for the opening of our second apartment community in the dynamic San Jose market.

The community includes a pool and spa, courtyard kitchen featuring professional appliances, barbecues, a pizza oven and a half-acre park on the green for residents to enjoy.
